Chapter 344
Corinne was speechless. Even though they were separated by a screen, she could sense an
inexplicably strong aggressiveness similar to that of a wild beast guarding its cubs. It could also be likened to a despot showing his possessiveness.
She may have rubbed Ghostlord the wrong way with her question. Hackers were very defensive, and it was normal for them to dislike revealing too much about their offline affairs.
Corinne was the one who crossed the line. When she realized that, she decided not to ask any further and changed the subject. [Not at all. I was just asking casually. Will you be going to this year’s Global Hacking Summit?]
[Ghostlord: That depends.]
Corinne then typed, [On what? Is something holding you back?]
[Ghostlord: I’m married. My wife is very strict. It wouldn’t be convenient to travel far.]
Corinne found it interesting because she did not expect Ghostlord to be such a family man!
She replied, [Congratulations! As it happens, I got married recently too.]
At this time, Road To Success popped up again and sent a banner to interject, [Did the two of you big shots get married to each other offline? Whoa! This sounds just like the plot of a movie! You’re of different genders, right? Master, you’re a woman, right? I don’t think Ghostlord is a woman. Or are you both men?]
Corinne was at a loss for words, and it seemed Ghostlord felt the same way, too.
He picked up the phone, looked at the time, and decided to send a message to Corinne.
[Can I come in there for a while?]
Corinne was concentrating on drawing the design when she heard her phone ring twice. She picked it up, looked at it, then frowned and replied, [Why do you want to come in for a while? Is something the matter?]
The man replied, [Nothing. I just wanted to see you.]
Corinne turned on the phone camera, smirked at it, and took a selfie for him. [There! You can look at me as long as you like! Good night, and don’t bother replying! I’m going to sleep soon!]
Jeremy was stunned, and he laughed in anger. ‘That d*mn girl is so frustrating yet so adorable at the same time.‘
